๐ŸŽค Building Efficient SLO for Quality Engineering

More info
Service level objectives help teams define an acceptable level of downtime for a service or a particular issue. SLOs can shine light on issues that fall short of a full-blown incident, but also don't fully meet expectations. In this talk we will go through examples on how QA teams can build efficient SLOs to define the acceptable state of the system under test. In the end of the talk we will know how to build SLOs on service layer with testing tools and frameworks as well as how we can alert ๐Ÿšจ teams on downtime of the system in a more e2e flow.

๐ŸŽคThe State of Browser Automation Frame Works In Javascript

More info
Browser automation frameworks have become an essential tool for web developers to test their applications and ensure their functionality. Over the years, several browser automation frameworks have been developed with varying features and capabilities. In this talk, we'll take a look at the current state of browser automation frameworks and how they compare in terms of their functionality, ease of use, and compatibility with different browsers.

One significant development in browser automation has been the introduction of the WebDriver protocol and the Chrome DevTools Protocol. We will explore how these protocols have expanded the possibilities of browser automation and discuss some of the open-source, community-driven frameworks that implement them, such as Selenium WebDriver, WebDriverIO, Puppeteer, Playwright and more..

We will also address some of the challenges involved in browser automation and how different frameworks tackle them. For instance, we will discuss handling HTTP basic authentication, intercepting traffic to mock web responses, and simulating network bandwidth.

By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of the current state of JavaScript-based browser automation frameworks and their impact on web development. You'll also learn about some of the latest tools and techniques for testing web applications and how to choose the right framework for your needs.
